Hey Everyone!

We're The Broadcast, a 6-piece female fronted soul rock band from Asheville, NC. Fresh out of Echo Mountain Recording Studios! We just wrapped pre-production on our newest album produced by Tim Lefebvre and Tyler "Falcon" Greenwell from Tedeschi Trucks Band! We're so excited to announce that our brand new album "Lost My Sight" is now available for preorder!

We've spent the last two years touring the United States and Europe cultivating an even stronger music community than we could have ever imagined. From sold out shows in Barcelona to rocking out for nearly 17,000 people at FloydFest, we're riding the rock and roll high like never before!

Two years ago, Caitlin slapped a photograph of Tedeschi Trucks Band onto her vision board and now we're convinced she possesses magical powers, because just one year after she placed that photo on her board, there we were sitting across from members of the band discussing production on our new album!

WHAT IS KICKSTARTER?

Kickstarter is a way for our fans to purchase our album and its merchandise in advance, which will in turn help us finance the release to a much wider audience. Simply put, this is not a hand out or donation! By contributing to our Kickstarter you are preordering limited edition merchandise not available anywhere else and also helping us to release the album!

WHY ARE WE DOING A KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN?

Point blank: it costs a LOT of money to release an album properly in today's world. The money that we've earned from touring has barely covered expenses this year and is totally not enough to finance a large scale record release such as this.

Your investment in our Kickstarter Campaign will go DIRECTLY toward the following finishing touches on our new album "Lost My Sight"

-Mixing-Mastering-Reproduction & Packaging-Promotion

CAN I JUST WAIT UNTIL THE RECORD IS IN STORES?

This pre-sale is SUPER important because you'll be supporting us in the most direct way possible. Your support shows the world and music industry that The Broadcast are a band worth believing in. We don't have a record label or a marketing budget to get our songs played on the radio, so we need your help NOW versus later to make our dreams come true.

As independent artists, having your continued support has been critical. There is absolutely NO way we'd be able to survive without fans like you. Throughout the band's existence, we've done almost everything independently, meaning that we've come this far without support from a management company, booking agency, or record label.

For us to be able to continue touring and also recording albums is a dream come true that reflects the outpouring of support we have received from our fans across the Southeast region and beyond throughout the years. SO MANY of you feel like family to us. This Kickstarter campaign is a way we can continue to remain independent, while allowing you to share in the dream to help get our music out into the world in 2016.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Risks and challenges

We've set a July 2019 release date for ourselves, but are also in discussions with a few different record labels. If we move forward with any kind of signing, it *might* push the release date back, but we will 100% honor any contributions to the fullest extent!
